Crossing the Isvai
A piece of Fanart for one of my FAVORITE Authors, Mercedes Lackey.
I have read many many of her trilogies and I fall into them and get wrapped up in her writing. I had to say I LOVED her take on Unicorns in the "Enduring Flame" trilogy and so here we have Kareta the Golden.
"A Golden unicorn more beautiful than the dawn came before Harrier and brought him The Three Books. Kareta the Golden spoke these words to Harrier, son of the portmaster of Armethalieh, "Harrier of the Cold North, I call upon you to become a Knight-mage, first in the land since Kellen the Poor Orphan boy." And then did Harrier bow down and weep, and said to Kareta the Golden, "This is a destiny too glorious for me, who am only the son of a portmaster, you must look elsewhere" Three times did Kareta offer him the Books of the Wild Magic and three times did he refuse them in his humility, until at last did Kareta the Golden say to him that he must take up this great burden so that he might guard his friend through the many dangers that would certainly befall him.
